Still Not Sure What’s Behind Your Hormone Symptoms? Take the first step to balance your hormones naturally with my FREE Hormone Symptom Profile Assessment: https://bit.ly/takemyhormonequiz

The average woman starts dieting at age 17.

By the time we hit 45, we’ve dieted at least 61 times.

Sixty-one. Diets.

And yet somehow we’re still being told to just “eat less and move more” to lose weight (as if we haven’t been trying that since dial-up internet.) 😜😤

But midlife metabolism isn’t about willpower—it’s about biology.

And after years of dieting, stressing, skipping meals, and surviving on caffeine and car snacks, our bodies are waving the white flag.

In today’s episode, I’m breaking down “10 Stupid Things Women Do To Mess Up Our Metabolism in Perimenopause and Menopause” including the go-to habits we’ve always relied on—but that no longer work in midlife.

In this episode, you will learn:

✔ The connection between undereating and fat storage

✔ Why overdoing cardio can backfire on your hormones

✔ How protein, sleep, and stress impact our ability to burn fat

✔ Why “eating clean” can still mess with your metabolism if you're missing this key nutrient

✔ The #1 exercise mistake women over 40 make when trying to lose weight

If you’ve ever thought, “Wait…am I eating too little?”—this episode is for you. 🎧

The average woman spends six years searching for relief from hormone symptoms. 

AI can’t speed that up.

Sure, it can plan your vacation, rewrite your resume, and even suggest a pretty good taco recipe.:)

But when it comes to balancing your hormones? That’s way above its pay grade.

Because while ChatGPT can piece together generic hormone-balancing tips from online surveys, TikTok trends, blogs, and whatever else it can scrape from the internet and present as a “tailor-made” solution, it doesn’t understand your health history, your lifestyle, or the root cause of your symptoms.

(And that’s a pretty big problem when you're trying to navigate hormones that can shift daily!)

In today’s episode, I’m breaking down "5 Things ChatGPT Can’t Tell You About Balancing Hormones in Perimenopause and Menopause."

In this episode, you’ll learn:

✔ Why generic advice could be sabotaging your hormone healing

✔ Why your hormones need personalization, not algorithm-sourced solutions

✔ What AI completely misses when it comes to your stress levels and hormone health

✔ Why what worked last year (or even last week) may not be working now (and why that's normal!)

✔ What actually creates lasting hormone balance (hint: it's not a copy-paste wellness plan)

If you’re tired of getting health advice from a robot who has no clue what a hot flash actually feels like, this episode is for you. 🎧

We do it every 8 minutes.

This week, we’re talking about something that might be secretly sabotaging your hormones every single day.

It’s not your diet.

👉 It’s your screen.

Because while social media might seem harmless (or even helpful, depending on who you follow), it could be raising your cortisol, tanking your progesterone, and sending your sleep, mood, and metabolisminto a full-blown hormone spiral.

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on how your phone habits may be contributing to hormone imbalance in perimenopause and menopause—and what you can do to interrupt the scroll without hurling your iPhone into a lake.

If your idea of “unplugged” is charging your phone in another room, this episode is for you. 🎧

You’re not crying in traffic because you’re crazy.

You’re not snapping at your family because you’re unstable.

You’re just living in a body that’s shifting—and no one explained what that would feel like.

Let’s be honest: Doctors are trained to treat clinical depression.

But most were never taught how perimenopause and menopause can impact our mood—or how symptoms of hormone imbalance like sadness, irritability, and emotional overwhelm can overlap with what looks like mental health issues.

Maybe you recently saw your GP, and she gave you a prescription for an SSRI without ever talking about your hormones.

Or maybe you’ve been taking an antidepressant for a while and are wondering if it’s actually helping.

If you’ve been medicating your mood but not seeing real healing, it’s time for a deeper look.

In this episode, you will learn:

✔How hormone changes in midlife can mimic depression (and why your doctor may miss it)

✔ What SSRIs are actually designed to treat—and what they’re not

✔ How symptoms like brain fog, exhaustion, and night sweats are related to emotional health

✔ What no one’s asking in your doctor’s office—but absolutely should

✔ The 3 red flags that your prescription might be masking a hormone imbalance

✔ Why your bloodwork might say “normal” even when everything feels off

✔ The sneaky difference between coping and healing (and how to tell which you’re doing)

✔ What to ask before refilling your SSRI (that your doctor may have missed the first time)

Plus, learn how Hormone Symptom Profiling can uncover the hormonal root cause of your emotional symptoms.

If you’ve ever said, “I just don’t feel like me anymore” or are wondering why you’re still struggling…even though you’re on an antidepressant…this episode is for you!

Dragging by 3pm—even after a “clean” lunch and your second coffee?

It’s not your schedule.

Or your age.

Or even those 10 pounds that won’t budge.

It’s your hormones.

Even if your doctor says everything looks “normal,” that mid-day crash could be a hormone red flag—one even your labs might be missing.

In today's episode, I’m peeling back the curtain on what’s really going on with your energy in perimenopause and menopause—and what you can actually do to start getting your energy (and your afternoons) back.

In this episode you will learn:

✔ The real reason why you can power through your morning—but then crash like clockwork by afternoon

✔ Why the same snacks that used to give you a boost are now leaving you drained

✔ Why your blood sugar behaves differently in midlife—and the impact on your energy, mood, and focus

If you have a drawer full of energy snacks and a Starbucks order every barista in a 10-mile radius knows by heart, this episode is for you. 🎧

✨ Take the First Step To Balance Your Hormones With My FREE Hormone Symptom Profile Assessment: https://bit.ly/takemyhormonequiz

What if the reason you’re still struggling to balance your hormones has nothing to do with what you’re doing… and everything to do with what you’re thinking?

Here’s the thing: our brains are wired to keep us safe.

(You know—safe, as in stuck. In the same place. Snapping at our kids for breathing too loud.:<)

So even when our house is on hormonal fire, our thoughts can convince us, “it’s not that bad”—or change is "just too risky."

But that kind of thinking could be the very reason WHY you’re still struggling.

In today's episode, I’m peeling back the curtain on the top 4 limiting beliefs that might be holding you back from balancing your hormones naturally.

In this episode you will learn:

✔ Why mindset—not just meal plans—might be the key to healing your hormones

✔ How our nervous system is actually wired to keep us safe (and stuck!)

✔ The biggest frustration among women in perimenopause and menopause when it comes to managing their symptoms

✔ Why “being too busy” might be code for something deeper 

✔ The real reason you keep putting off taking that next step (and how to finally take it)

If you've ever said, "I should be able to figure this out on my own" or 'I'm too busy to deal with this right now", this episode is for you. 🎧

You’ve done everything right…scheduled a visit with your doctor, got some lab work done, maybe even filled a prescription (or two.)...

So why do you feel like you're slowly dying inside while pretending everything’s fine?

If you’ve ever felt dismissed, misdiagnosed, or flat-out invisible in your doctor’s office—you are not alone. And you are definitely not crazy. 🙃

The truth is, traditional healthcare doesn’t always connect the dots when it comes to hormone imbalance in perimenopause and untreated menopause symptoms.

Symptoms are often managed or “medicated away” with insurance-approved quick fixes—but the real cost of perimenopause and menopause goes way beyond hot flashes and skipped periods.

In today's episode, I’m peeling back the curtain on what insurance covers, what it doesn’t, and why what you’re paying might be just managing symptoms… without really solving the problem.

In this episode you will learn:

✔ The emotional, physical, and financial toll of untreated menopause symptoms—and how they impact your daily life

✔ How much hormone imbalance really costs—and why relying on insurance is keeping women stuck

✔ What no one tells you about missed work days, strained relationships, and midlife burnout (until it’s too late)

✔ How traditional healthcare fails women in midlife—and why natural hormone support isn’t covered (but should be)

✔ The long-term risks of untreated hormone imbalance—and how to protect your mental and physical health

If you’ve ever said, ‘I’d get help if my insurance covered it…’ or ‘I can’t afford to spend any more money on this'…this episode is for you! 🎧

Does it ever feel like you’re the only one still struggling to figure out your hormones?

Trust me—you’re not alone.

Up to 85% of women over 40 experience hormone-related symptoms like chronic fatigue, weight gain, mood swings, and brain fog. And yet, we still feel like we’re on our own when it comes to finding a solution that actually works.

I talk to women every day who feel like “it’s all their fault.” Maybe they didn’t stick with a program long enough or they didn’t follow it perfectly. So they try another diet, another supplement, another program… only to end up right back at square one.

In today's episode, I’m spilling 6 surprising reasons why hormone-balancing solutions fail—and what to do instead.

Join me as I unpack:

✔ The "hidden" issue with most "natural hormone balance" programs--plus, how to spot the red flags before wasting time & money

If you’ve been following all the “rules," but still feel exhausted, unmotivated, and snapping at your houseplants, then this episode is for you! 🎧

Hey friend,

Are you waking up exhausted, no matter how much sleep you get? Are you drooling on your keyboard by 3 PM, wondering if napping under your desk is less fireable than falling asleep during a Zoom? Or maybe you want to change your habits, but every attempt feels like a nonstarter.

If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Studies show that 85% of women in midlife experience chronic fatigue, brain fog, and lack of motivation—leaving many of us to wonder: 

Is it just “aging”, or is something actually wrong?

The problem isn’t your willpower, your workouts, or even what time you go to bed—it’s your hormones.

That’s because in midlife, hormone shifts can send our brain into energy-conservation mode, draining motivation and making even simple lifestyle changes feel impossible.

In this episode, you will learn:

✔ Why your lack of energy isn’t just a phase—and how midlife hormones actually work together to hijack your brain 

✔ The impact of adrenal fatigue, insulin resistance, and thyroid function on our energy, mood, and mental drive 

✔ Why willpower alone isn’t enough—and what your brain actually needs to get you moving 

✔ How perimenopause and menopause trick your body into slowing down (and how to override the shutdown)

If you find yourself asking:

❓ Why am I so exhausted even after a full night of sleep?

❓ Why do I feel completely unmotivated, even though I want to change?

❓ Is this just part of getting older, or is something actually wrong?

Then this episode is for you! 🎧
